This deals with the problem where multiple youtube locations that refer
to the same actual account (but with different settings) will all try to check
for when videos are done transcoding, when only one is needed.
Cutter now takes a 'config' arg which is a json blob with detail
on each upload location. This is a bit nasty if you're trying to run it manually
but was the easiest way to transfer the config data from docker-compose.jsonnet
to the actual application.
This lays the groundwork for being able to cut to many upload locations.
Right now, only a single location can be configured, and only youtube is supported.
After certain kinds of DB error (eg. lost conn), we need to make a new conn
to have things work again. To be safe, we just do it after every error where it might
be a problem.
Since we never got a new conn after failure, we would just keep erroring with
"connection already closed" errors.
This isn't applicable to the main cutter loops since a DB failure there will restart the process.
Each method is fairly complicated, but is self-contained and can be examined independently.
cut_jobs in particular contains several extra helpers and directs control flow
via some iterators. This is unfortunately nessecary due to the requests interface.
This commit only lays out the main loop, showing the high-level flow
and defining shared utilities. This is for clarity.
The actual methods that do the work will be implemented seperately.
It runs on an interval, fetching all videos in TRANSCODING from the DB,
checking them against youtube, and then updating any that are done.
It should be noted that youtube somewhat lies about what being "done" means,
but this is a better approximation than nothing.
Provides basic youtube api calls, and gets passed into both transcode checker and cutter.
The official youtube client library is many orders of magnitude larger and more complicated,
and can't actually do what we want (stream an upload of unknown size).
The cutter has two jobs:
* To cut videos, taking them through states EDITED -> TRANSCODING
* To monitor TRANSCODING videos for when they're complete
We run these as separate greenlets with their own DB connections,
and if either dies we gracefully shut down the other.
